CLAUSE COMBINING IN NOOTKA 271
- I take much of the information about basic word order from Hawkins (1983:283-
287, 320-342). - Just as I think it useful to consider the Nootka and Eskimo type of noun incorpo
ration a subtype of a broader phenomenon (cf. fn. 2). - Cf. also Longacre 1972. Other characterizations are given by Hopper &
Thompson (1984:741-743) (emphasizing that non-final verbs may be subordinate
as well as coordinate) and Thompson & Longacre (1985:175-176) (emphasizing
the difference between chaining and subordination). - This discussion of generalized clause chaining is in the spirit of the discussion of
subordination by Haiman & Thompson (1984), who isolate several independent
and gradational parameters that enter into the traditional dichotomy between sub
ordination and coordination.
